The simple value of the coordinate is the WKT
string with the
coordinates… The order of the coordinates in WKT is longitude,
latitude

Hi all,
I was collecting geodata from Wikidata and showing them into a map
they look quite weird... So I look at them more intensely and coords
seem inverted.
Try with a simple query like:

And check the coords on a item and on its result in the third column.
The third column have Point(lon, lat), isn't it?
